High Health Care Utilization Preceding Diagnosis With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Although early diagnosis improves long‐term outcomes, patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) often experience prolonged, circuitous paths to diagnosis. To inform diagnostic improvement, we sought to characterize health care utilization in the year preceding diagnosis. Methods We identified 10,021 patients with an incident diagnosis

Cumulative Social Disadvantage and Disease Activity in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: A Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Social determinants of health (SDOH) contribute to juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) disparities, but most studies have assessed SDOH independently rather than cumulatively across individual, family, and neighborhood levels. Using a socioecological framework, we investigated the relationship among cumulative social disadvantage ...

Modeling Airflow Using Subject-Specific 4DCT-Based Deformable Volumetric Lung Models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biomedical Imaging, 2012
Lung radiotherapy is greatly benefitted when the tumor motion caused by breathing can be modeled. The aim of this paper is to present the importance of using anisotropic and subject-specific tissue elasticity for simulating the airflow inside the lungs ...

Biopsychosocial Determinants of Hand Function and Its Trajectories Over Five Years in Patients With Hand Osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to investigate hand function trajectories over five years in primary hand osteoarthritis (OA). Additionally, determinants of baseline and longitudinal hand function were assessed. Methods A total of 538 patients with both baseline and five‐year study visits were analyzed.

Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Siamese InternImage for Change Detection

open access: yesRemote Sensing
For some time, CNN was the de facto state-of-the-art method in remote sensing image change detection. Although transformer-based models have surpassed CNN-based models due to their larger receptive fields, CNNs still retain their value for their ...

ON THE q-DEFORMATION OF THE NJL MODEL [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 2000
Using a q-deformed fermionic algebra we perform explicitly a deformation of the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio (NJL) Hamiltonian. In the Bogoliubov–Valatin approach we obtain the deformed version of the functional for the total energy, which is minimized to obtain the corresponding gap equation. The breaking of chiral symmetry and its restoration in the limit q →

The Lupus Damage Index Revision Program: Results From the Item Generation and Reduction Phases

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A data‐driven and expert/patient consensus‐based project to develop a revised Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Damage Index (SDI) is under way supported by SLICC, ACR, and the Lupus Foundation of America. Our objective is to report the item generation and reduction phase results

Short‐term response to biologic therapy in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is not influenced by disease duration at initiation of therapy

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives We aimed to determine whether the short‐term response to biologics in biologic‐naïve psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is better in patients initiating biologic treatment early in the disease course. Methods PsA patients who started biologic therapy from the year 2000 to 2025 were included for analysis. Patients considered in the early treatment (ET)
